First Point International Ltd v Department of Trade and Industry: QBD 24 Aug 1999

A fee charged by an employment agency for an applicant to complete an appraisal form before being accepted for work through the agency was unlawful. The form was sufficiently proximate to be part of the process of ‘seeking employment’ for the offence to be committed, though it remains a question of fact in each case.
